Halloween 2009

I know it's a little early to post on Halloween, but since I think Abby is still a little too young to trick or treat and the fact that we have Stake Conference tonight, I'm going to go ahead and post about our Halloween.
Abby and I went to the Science Spectrum here in Lubbock on Thursday morning for a Halloween activity they were doing and it was a madhouse! A LOT of people showed up with their kids and I was sort of happy to leave, haha. Too many people for me! Plus, Abby is so little if I turned around I would lose her. Scared me a little bit. Naturally I forgot my camera, but since it was SUPER cold and rainy I didn't dress Abby up in her costume because she would have been way too cold...it wasn't a big loss.
Last night, Vic, Abby, and I went to the Fall Festival our ward was putting on. We also invited our friends Stephanie and Addie to go with us and it was pretty fun. They had bowling, "bobbing" for apples (which they gave the kids sharp objects to "bob" for them...interesting), pumpkins to decorate, donuts on a string, one of those inflatable bouncy things, and they had a costume parade. Nick Sorensen was a good sport and filled in for the bishop for a "Cream Bro. Sorensen" activity. Did I bring my camera? Nope. For some reason my brain doesn't turn to camera. It's amazing I have pictures of Abby at all.
So because of my camera amnesia I gave myself more work and dressed Abby up in her costume again today so I could take pictures. She doesn't sit still very well so these are the best I have.
